Beautiful bike, I'll bet it handles the curve very well. I can only imagine riding that thing down main street Lake Wobegone... what must the neighbors think?

Dang, I totally missed that reference to our only curve.

Just getting a bit more tolerant in my old age (52 in a couple of weeks). I might be joing the aftermarket exhaust crowd with a MIVV setup for the Mutly. I'll probably leave the dB killer in as I don't enjoy annoying the public.

I like just about any motorcycle. I currently own an Ultra Classic Electra Glide and it is great for 1,000 mile days. I plan to add a BMW and do some adventure riding. You can't go wrong either way. The main thing is to get out and ride what ever you own.

There is plenty of rational thought in motorcycling. Do you lift up the front wheel every time the mood takes you? Blast down the interstate at 120 because you can? Drag from stoplight to stoplight, cops be damned?

What you suggest is an excellent post-hoc rationalization for one emotionally-driven decision. Not a description of how the human mind works, even on a motorcycle.

Harley this, BMW that. my dick is bigger than yours, I can piss farther than you, my dad can whip your dad.
How many times does this horse have to be beaten into glue?
I had BMW's then HD's, both are good depending what your use is I.E. right tool for the job.
speaking of tools...you tools can resume the discussion now!

I got a quote from the Navy Exchange Sales on a 2013 Road King in TwoTone Candy Orange & Beer Bottle with Striping along with H-D Factory Security System and ABS and ABS Black 28-Spoke Cast Aluminum Wheels and Cruise Control for $20,708. The quote also includes the 5 year unlimited mileage extended service plan w/tire and wheel coverage. MSRP is $22,527. Seems like a pretty good deal.
